The affinities between the passage Beer cites and the work I investigate frame Wharton’s interest in an American citizenry’s gradual acquisition of “mental power and capacity,” and a resultant cultural capital that might curb contingent evolutionary processes. Beer mentions The House of Mirth’s “condensation of sang-froid and violence, private and public [ . . ] where the highly polished surface of Lily Bart’s milieu is crazed with dirt” (Open Fields 281), and she recounts “[a]n engrossing question” explored in Darwin’s Plots that asks “what happens when unforeseen readers appropriate terms and texts” (1).

Wharton’s analysis of social and biological heredity represents social change within the terminological framework of Darwinism.

Wharton’s application of theories from the physical sciences to a sociological domain considers social change to proceed from a biological base.
